Shukuru Amos's Linkedin Analytics

Was telling fellow Tanzanian youths that, if you're a knowledge professional building an audience —Twitter is the wrong platform. You'll be building on shaky grounds. The reason is that X is a politically marked platform. Whenever activists clash with authority, the empire strikes back by shutting down the platform. And your business becomes collateral damage. Not only that, you'd be wasting precious time if you're not focusing on an already-established platform for Professional Services. Remember, 90% of business success is learning which game to stop playing so you can play the one that matters. In Tanzania, LinkedIn is the place where you can play golf with the wealty. Invest on building your personal brand here.

Yamfaa nini mtu kujikusanyia Likes na shangwe mtandaoni, lakini akakosa kujenga jina lenye hadhi na kujipatia wanunuzi? Ufalme wa uchumi wa digitali ni wa wale wenye uwezo wa kumiliki maudhui yao. Niliwahi kuandika makala inaitwa "Do Not Share Valuable Content". Hii hapa 👇🏽 https://lnkd.in/dk6BS-8R Click uisome.

Ukieleza huwa unafanya nini ❌ Ukieleza wateja wako hupata nini ✅ Matokeo yanakishindo kuzidi Mchakato. Unaambiwa stop explaining the how, Start explaining the wow. Au kama mrembo alivyosema kwenye ngoma ya Ngwair, Mikasi: "Acha longo longo we sema unashingapi". Watu hawajali huwa unaanzia hatua A, unakuja B then D —wanataka matokeo. Mfano: "Our clients save time and cut costs with our done-for-you content. No edits, no delays, just ready-to-publish posts that grow their brand." Hii ni tofauti na kusema "We're a 360 digital marketing agency helping businesses to grow online." Whatever that means.

Writing is a POWERFUL signal of competence. Everyone I know who hasn't made significant career or business inroads is a poor writer. - No fluid expressibility. - No clarity or conviction in their delivery. Fixing your writing will solve +80% of business and career problems. Your eloquence and rhetoric is all you have.

Nyongeza kuhusu ku-comment kimkakati: EPUKA kushiriki kwenye post za account kubwa. KWANZA, account nyingi kubwa zinaongoza kwa kuwa na audience mbovu. PILI, kuna kelele nyingi kila mtu anataka aonekane. TATU, huyo mtu hatojibu comment yako. Tumia MBINU hii: Hakikisha UNA-COMMENT kwenye COMMENT ya mtu mwingine. Siyo kwenye post yenyewe. Na jitahidi yawe mazungumzo, yaani mjibizane na huyo mtu uliyecomment kwake. Hivi ndivyo unaweza kujuana na watu na kujenga hadhira ambayo ni loyal and profitable. Mengine utayapata ndani ya kitabu, #MbeleYaMuda.

Charcoal production in Africa is still growing by 2% a year, The Economist reports. If there's been an African energy transition, it is from one kind of wood to another. Charcoal had fuelled Africa's urbanization. It is dense in energy and hard to regulate, much like cities themselves. Nearly 200 million of Africans cook mostly with charcoal, including 27% of urbanites. To back up The Economist's data, I've attached images I just captured in one of the streets in Dar es Salaam. A truck unloading sacks of charcoal on a broad Sunday morning. Despite concerns about pollution, lost tree and illicit money flows, it refuses to go away. Governments are torn between trying to make it legal and outlawing it. "Abrupt bans create an illicit market", says Tuyeni Mwampamba, a Tanzanian researcher. The value of Africa's charcoal trade is thought to be in tens of billions of dollars, maybe more than Africans make from cocoa or coffee. Ending the use of charcoal would have economic consequences. The trade is informal and decentralised; gas flows through big firms, without creating as many jobs. Charcoal provides roughly 275 days of work for each terajoule consumed, compared with 95 for electricity and 15 for LPG. Gas imports eat up foreign currency. Mr. Ali, a charcoal trader in Nairobi calls it “black gold”. He's not worried about gas and ethanol as competitors. “As long as there is the ghetto, they will always use charcoal, ” he says.

Kama kampuni haikufati kukuuliza "tufanye nini" ila inakufata kukwambia "fanya hiki na hiki." Maana yake jina lako halina mamlaka kwenye tasnia uliyomo. Huna brand authority. Wewe ni DOER, siyo STRATEGIST. Hautazamwi kama mtu anayeweza kutoa ushauri wa kitaalamu utakaoipatia kampuni mafanikio. You’re just an order taker. Kuna shida gani kuwa DOER? Well, jibu liko kwenye AI na automation. Teknolojia hizi zinashusha bei ya task doers kila uchao. By the time unafuatwa na kuambiwa fanya moja mbili tatu, kampuni tayari imekaa na STRATEGIST wakatathmini wakaja na mbinu na vipengele vya kutekeleza. That's where you come in. Basi huyu strategist ndiyo anakula top layer. Wewe unaachiwa mchuzi chuku chuku.

I avoid cardio in the gym like the plague. So I ran TO the gym instead. 3.12 km at 5’51”/km, and just like that, cardio was done. Now, time for the real work: lifting 🏋🏿‍♂️ My lifting progress (Adjusted to ego lifting) - Bench: 50kg up to 15 reps - Deadlift: 80kg no belt - Pull-Ups: 10-8 reps x3 Challenges: Last year I got excruciating sciatica and lower back pain. Doctor ChatGPT and YouTube were with me during the two months healing journey. P.S. Statistics about the average person should never apply to you. Whether on income, fitness, or intelligence. Good morning ☀️

Ninavyotumia AI. Ikitokea sijiamini na nilichoandika, hasa nikigusia potentially explosive topic, huwa namwambia DeepSeek hivi: Nimeandika makala hii naomba nisaidie kuangalia mambo kadhaa. 1. Find any logical gaps in my reasoning. 2. Huu ucheshi niliotumia, is it morally bankrupt irony? 3. Call out any lack of supporting points. 4. Identify passive-voice sentences and fix them. 5. Na vipi nikipost kama ilivyo? Then ninaangalia version yake na hoja zake. Mara nyingi naishia kunyofoa baadhi ya sehemu tu na kuboresha final draft mwenyewe. Siwezi CTRL + V the whole output. Nitakuwa sijipendi.

Juma aliskia sijui kwa guru gani kwamba "consistency is key". Na akaichukua hiyo as showing up everyday. Hapa anatamba kwa Mwandu kwamba anamzidi kwa consistency. Shida ni kwamba Juma ni duka la jumla la kila wazo linalokuja kichwani. Mara arukie news headlines na tweets zenye potential ya kwenda viral. Yaliyojiri bungeni, mara sijui mental health na madude gani. Mada zote zake. Kama mtu mlevi —hakai kwenye lane ya ujuzi wake. Kama kupost anapost sana tu, you have to give him that. Lakini hadhi ya jina lake kwenye fani bado dhaifu na anasugua bench kupata wateja. He's not consistent. He's merely being frequent. Of course anapata kaufuatiliwaji fulani, mostly na wasaka tonge wenzake. Lakini hatajenga authority kwa namna ile. Maana leo anamgusa huyu, kesho amemgusa yule. Wa jana akija anakuta yupo kwenye topic tofauti. Yaani hana targeted content, which means hana target audience. Sikilizeni wadogo zangu, na wakubwa mnaofanya this mistake. Upo hapa ili ifike hatua watu wanaambizana: "muone fulani atakusaidia kwa hilo". You don't reach that stage by constantly screeching off the topic rails. Mi mwenyewe naenda off topic. Lakini ni baada ya kusimika jina kwenye fani. Hata hivyo sijisahau na kuzidisha.

Africa has long been associated with the export of natural resources. It's about to be known for exporting its humans too. The Economist argues that, migration from Africa is an unstoppable force that will long outlast today's hostile rhetoric and help define the 21st century. The driving forces are both demographic and economic. It is well known that the number of people of working age in the developed world is declining. What is less known is that emerging countries that are associated with exporting people, such as Mexico and the Philippines, are also getting older and richer —meaning that smaller share of their population would leave in future. In Africa, by contrast, the working-age population is forecast to increase by around 700 million people by 2050. The future of migration will be African in origin. Now there are two controversial questions. ONE is about brain drain. If the best and the brightest leave Africa, does that means the worst are left in charge? At some point the exodus of skilled workers is large enough to do harm, especially in small countries with a shallow educated class. The Economist argues that such problems are generally soluble. African graduates are underemployed at home. Their lives can be transformed by earning several times more in richer countries than they would at home. Leaving is often the surest route out of poverty. The remittances they sent last year exceeded both direct investment in Africa and overseas aid. A typical African-trained doctor sends back almost twice as much in remittances as the cost of their initial training. And emigration can also lead to a “brain gain”. The prospect of higher wages abroad prompts more people to acquire marketable skills. Some stay at home, others leave and some eventually return with their skills enhanced. The SECOND question is whether the rest of the world will welcome more Africans. President Trump was including the continent when he spoke of “shithole countries” in his first term. Stephen Miller, his adviser, has said that “If you import the third world, you become the third world.” The Arab world is famous for abusing Africans. The EU's Africa policy is dominated by efforts to reduce illegal immigration. So there's that! But demographic and economic realities will soon bite. Africans needs jobs; the rest of the world need workers. There's another question by skeptics. For a continent that has squandered its natural resources, will it do better with its human ones?

Niko nafanya mradi wa kuingiza fedha za kigeni. Kwenye web design nikipatia Hero section tu basi, kwingine nataleza tu. Sijajua mteja atasemaje hapa, still building. P.S. Canva imehusika kuchukua premium image na kuandaa background image. Used their AI to expand picha kushoto, kisha kuitia ukungu kidogo (black gradient) ili maadishi meupe yaonekane.

STORY TIME: Juzi nimeona mtu mwenye past Manager positions nne from banks tofauti tofauti kaandika anaomba kazi. Tena katumia kabisa ile, "Hello jamani, natafuta kazi nitashukuru kwa msaada. I've previously worked at A, B, C". Profile ina utepe wa kijani #OpenToWork. Hapa kuna mambo matatu. KWANZA: How come work experiences za manager hazijaandikwa kuonyesha leadership impact? Kaweka orodha ya "roles and responsibilities" kana kwamba unasoma tangazo la kazi. Sana sana kaonyesha ana ujuzi na bidii. Unfortunately ujuzi na bidii haviuzi. Kinachouza ni authority, and that hasn't been reflected anywhere kwenye profile yake. Vijana wakikuuzia huduma ya branding and profile optimization unawapita kama ombaomba. Haya sasa manager mzima umechukua desperate measures kama graduate job seekers. PILI: The old contract where you can be a good corporate citizen to ensure unapata kazi kirahisi mbeleni is broken. Huyu mfumo umemuangusha. Kimbilio limekuwa LinkedIn. TATU: Wengi hatujui kitu kinaitwa LEVERAGE. Hatujui kujiboresha beyond the default credentials. Build your levers, you'll need them.

Hongera kwa Prof Janabi 👏🏻 Inalipa kuwa na Jina. Kuwa thought leader/public educator. Enyi maboss na wakurugenzi Tanzania, bado mtaendelea kujifungia maofisini au somo limeeleweka tuanze kubrand nchi yetu seriously?

Mtu awaye yote asipoishi kama mwanafunzi anayejisomea kwa bidii kila siku —kamwe hatoboi kwenye uchumi wa digitali. Siku hizi kazi zilizokuwa rahisi kufanyika kama vile kutafsiri, AI imezifagia. Kama bado zipo, zimeshuka bei hazilipi tena. Kazi zilizokuwa ngumu kama vile programming sasa ndiyo kazi rahisi. Kazi zilizokuwa haziwezi kufanyika sasa watu wanajaribu kuzifanya. Kesheni mkijinoa kwa ujuzi na maarifa. Kwa maana hamjui siku wala saa AI atakapo vamia fani yako na kukutowesha.
